[Bug 1877861] [NEW] When installing grub to multiple EFI partitions they all have the same label in the EFI vars

[Tony Middleton]

Public bug reported:

I have been trying out the new facility to install grub to multiple efi
partitions.  Both of the efi entries shown in efibootmgr have the same
label and these are all that is shown in the boot selection menu on my
systems making it impossible to distinguish between them.

Each entry should be given a different label to enable choosing the
entry required.

I am using grub2 (2.04-1ubuntu26) on a Focal system.
